I hope you have enjoyed your weekend. Just think, only two more weeks until Spring Break!
Please remember to be consistent with respect to our discipline plan, the posting of grades, and communication with parents. As we enter the spring, it is more important than ever that we follow procedures and present a united front when dealing with our students. Taking care of business on our end will make things run more smoothly for all involved.
Those of you who have lunch duty, please help each day by clearing the Willett Hall lobby and the restrooms when we begin our announcements. We have some students who are hanging out in those places until the bell rings, and they need to hear any announcements that Coach Ragsdale or I may have.
I hope you find the following tips helpful as we enter a new week. See you in the morning!
10 Resolutions for a Great School Year

- Resolution No. 9: I will do my best to provide for my students.
- Resolution No. 10: I will learn at least one new skill this year outside my comfort zone.
